Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1901 edition. Excerpt: ... Ill THE POOL AND THE RIVERSIDE Ill THE POOL AND THE RIVERSIDE EAST LONDON, then, is a collection of new towns crammed with people; it is also a collection of industries ; it is a hive of quiet, patient, humble workers; all its people live by their own labor; moreover, it is a busy port with a population of sailors, and those who belong to sailors, and those who make their livelihood out of sailors, and such as go down to the sea in ships. Its riverside is cut up with docks; in and about among the houses and the streets around the docks rise forests of masts; there is no seaport in the country, not even Portsmouth, which is so charged and laden with the atmosphere of ocean and the suggestion of things far off as this port of London and its riverside. The port and the river were here long before East London was begun. The port, however, was formerly higher up, below London Bridge. It was one of London's sturdy mayors who bluntly reminded a king, when he threatened to take away the trade of London, that, at least, he would have to leave them the river. For, you see, while the river runs below London Bridge, it is not much harm that any king, even a mediaeval monarch, can do to London trade. And now come with me; let us walk quietly about this strange city which has so little to show except its people and their work. We will begin with the riverside, the port and the Pool and the "hamlets" which lie beside the river. There is one place in London where, at any time of day and all the year round, except in days of rain and snow, you may find a long line of people, men and women, boys and girls--people well dressed and people in rags, people who are halting here on their errands or their business, and people who have no work to do.
